Again, this is a pretty cruddy time to start a thread, but, what are some of your favorite lines from songs?

"The remedy is the experience. This is a dangerous liaison. I say the comedy is that it's serious. This is a strange enough new play on words. I say the tragedy is how you're gonna spend the rest of your nights with the light on, so shine the light on all of your friends when it all comes down to nothing in the end." - The Remedy by Jason Mraz

"Here in town you can tell he's been down for awhile
But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles
Wanna hold him, maybe I'll just sing about it" - Breathe (2 AM)

"A new love
Though I know there's no such thing as true love
Even so, although I never knew love
Still I feel one dream is my due" - A New Life

 

[JarethDrakul]

"Low tide and high tea, The oysters are waiting for me,
If I'm not there on time, I'll send my emissary,
If I photoshop you, Out of every picture I could
Go quietly quiet, But would that do any good
Will it hurt? No it won't, Then what am I so afraid of
Filthy victorians, They made me what I'm made of
The brighter the light, The darker the shadow
I don't need a minder, I've made up my mind
Go away"
-Swallow, Emilie Autumn

"What sad bewilderment this brought, physical clearness,
alas, still so much abhorred:
an ancient ghost awoke and fiercely arose in me:
it was that old, savage, yet half-forgotten ideal of perfect neutrality."
-In Der Palastra, Sopor Aeternus

"Eating from the butcher's slab, Becoming what they meet
Restrained and roasted while they gorge, Strapped into the seat
Bathing in your arrogance, Dining will ensue
God made me a cannibal, To fix problems like you"
-100%, Angelspit
